World Cup fever is now heavily sinking in and with one eye on the calendar, it only seems appropriate before we reach June 12th to look back and immerse ourselves in the historic legacy of the competition.
We dedicate this post to stylish individuals of the past whose outstanding skills on the pitch met top individual grooming efforts, creating personas for generations to admire and look up to - even to this day.
Our squad of the sharpest World Cup legends has been presented in a traditional 4-4-2 formation to realistically tighten the selection process and we've even included a manager to help spruce up the touchline.
Manager - Enzo Bearzot (Italy)
GK - Bert Trautmann (Germany)
(Didn't actually get to play in a World Cup but was so good we couldn't ignore)
CBs - Paolo Maldini (Italy) & Bobby Moore (England)
RB - José Nasazzi (Uruguay), LB - Giacinto Facchetti (Italy)
CMs - Socrates (Brazil) & Raymond Kopa (France)
RM - David Beckham (England) , LM - Zoltán Czibor (Hungary)
STs - Thierry Henry (France) & Fritz Walter (Germany)
